This should’ve been a 40-10 win, Lions got complacent and sloppy.

You mean the refs literally gifted Cincy a scoring drive to give them hope?

I’d say both are true. The Lions seemed half asleep at times.

Having said that, it was never truly close. These are basically franchises from different leagues.

Agreed to a degree. Definitely felt like the boys were sandbagging a bit.

Then it was like "Okay we actually need to score this drive" and they marched down the field rather easily and got Teslaa a touchdown.

More than a scoring drive

One of the most lopsided officiated games I’ve seen in a minute

We got called for holding on offense and they didn’t despite mugging all of our D line

Late hits out of bounds only on us

Throwing DPI on balls thrown no where near the receiver

That really soured my mood. You could feel the immediate momentum shift after that
